Answer 1

To find the width of the garden, we can use the formula for the perimeter of a rectangle: P = 2l + 2w, where P is the perimeter, l is the length, and w is the width.

In this case, the length is given as 3 feet and the total fencing available is 24 feet. We can set up the equation: 24 = 2(3) + 2w.

Simplifying the equation, we have: 24 = 6 + 2w.

Subtracting 6 from both sides of the equation, we have: 18 = 2w.

Dividing both sides of the equation by 2, we have: w = 9.

Therefore, the width of the garden needs to be 9 feet for it to work with the given length and amount of fencing.
